Hello families!

I hope that you're all staying warm! The weather this week is supposed to be quite cold. Students should be prepared for the cold weather by wearing warm boots, a winter jacket, snow pants, gloves or mittens, and a warm hat or hood. We are outside unless it is -20 and, even when it is -20, may be outside for short periods of time. We ask that students come to school already wearing their winter wear so they are comfortable being outside before the bell rings in the morning and during the recess periods. (If it is not -20 in the mornings, students will be outside prior to the bell.)

Please make sure your child has all these winter items!

Today was our last day of "Mission Impossible" in Phys Ed! We had so much fun going through all the obstacles that Mr. Newton set up for us! Ask me what my favourite part of "Mission Impossible" was!

We continued making pathways and mazes to think about giving directions. We made some really unique creations today!

We learned about skip counting and coloured a hundreds chart to show the patterns. We see patterns when we look in each column, but today we focused on 1s, 2s, 5s, and 10s. This will help us find efficient ways to count in math.

We practiced sequencing numbers and identifying numbers out of order.

We used our knowledge of King Ed to write words today! Afterwards, we wrote super sentences based on a winter picture.

UPCOMING IMPORTANT DATES:

Monday, January 15 – No School (Non-instructional Day)
